Subject: Academic Research on Wireless Community Networks
Hello,
I'm a French PhD student in sociology. My research focuses on
"innovations made
by and for users". I have decided to particularly focus on
"Wireless Community
Networks" which are illustrative of a new type of approach more
autonomous,
alternative and civic.
For the last two years, I have been interviewing French members of
"Wifi
Community Networks"; I talked with them about their commitment and
about the
life of their project. Now, I carry on with my research and I
propose you to
answer to my questionnaire. This questionnaire will enable me to
gather data on
a wider population: members of European and North American "Wireless
Communities".

Answer the questionnaire should not take you more than a few
minutes. Personal
informations will be kept anonymous. Survey results will be
communicated and
freely accessible.
I would be very grateful to you if you could circulate my
questionnaire among
your contacts (in your own wifi community). Thanks for your answer
and for
message diffusion.
I am at your disposal for any questions or commentary.
Best regards.

P.S.: If possible, can you please indicate at the end of the
questionnaire where
do you come from (city) and the name of your wifi network.
